When the Supreme Leader is just a "name"...
A bold claim in this clip: the IRGC no longer answers to the leadership — it rides on top of it. Just like the final days of the Abbasid Caliphate, when the Caliph was merely a name on the pulpits and the coins, while real power sat with the military commanders in the Samarra garrison.
According to this analysis, the position of the third Supreme Leader — whether Mojtaba Khamenei or anyone else — is ceremonial against the IRGC's grip on power. Is history repeating itself?
